A Spirit-Filled Body of Christ 1 Corinthians 12 and Ezekiel 37 (and a few other things as well!)

How do we know that something is of the Spirit?

We relate to God through our spirit Romans 1:9 For God, whom I serve with my spirit Romans 8:16 it is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

Discerning the Character of the Spirit We relate to God through our spirit

Often Hard to Tell whether Paul is talking about God’s Spirit or our spirit 1 Corinthians 14:15 What should I do then? I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray with the mind also; I will sing praise with the spirit, but I will sing praise with the mind also. 2 Corinthians 4:13 But just as we have the same spirit of faith that is in accordance with scripture Ephesians 1:17 I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation as you come to know him

Discerning the Character of the Spirit We relate to God through our spirit God’s Spirit becomes so entwined with our spirit that we can’t tell them apart

A Life-giving Spirit 1 Cor Thus it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving (life- making) spirit. 2 Cor 3.17 where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

Discerning the Character of the Spirit We relate to God through our spirit God’s Spirit becomes so entwined with our spirit that we can’t tell them apart Where the Spirit is there is life and freedom

1 Corinthians 12 1 Corinthians 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed… 7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. All these are activated by one and the same Spirit, who allots to each one individually just as the Spirit chooses. 12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

Gifts 1 Corinthians 12:7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 1 Corinthians 12:28 And God has appointed in the church

The essence of the Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:23 and those members of the body that we think less honourable we clothe with greater honour, and our less respectable members are treated with greater respect;

Discerning the Character of the Spirit We relate to God through our spirit God’s Spirit becomes so entwined with our spirit that we can’t tell them apart Where the Spirit is there is life and freedom The Spirit gives gifts and we need to use them so the Body has life
